Just back from the matinee of Arrival at Komedia. Though I seem to be pretty much in the minority on this one, I found it strictly B Movie. Where to start? Complete set of stock military and media cut-outs and sub-Independence Day graphic depiction of an alien spaceship. Amy Adams did her level...
Aiming to go and see Arrival this week. Tho with limited expectations. With very few exceptions, movies that make it into your local cinema turn out to be invariably TRITE. Picturehouses chain are far from exempt from that sweeping generalisation. IMHO, like.
The original Argentinian version of The Secret in their Eyes was on BBC2 last night. It's available on iPlayer for the next six days :thumbsup:

Won't even ATTEMPT to add to MB's most excellent appraisal of The Revenant other than to add a resounding... THIS. WITH KNOBS ON. Fully deserving of all the Oscars about to come it's way. 9/10.
